It's finally here! Nisei Engineering Intercooler!
It's finally here! Nisei Engineering Intercooler!

Now everyone druelling over the intercooler on my Evo can finally get one. We just finished final testing last week and the numbers were spectacular.
Here are some of our test results taken from https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...8&page=4&pp=15 of our test of the Nisei vs GReddy V-SPL (we have more tests coming):

We went head to head with the GReddy V-spec Intercooler by testing both cores out on the same car with probes drilled in to the end tanks of each core. The ambient temp was 53 degrees F so we were thinking it was a bad time to really show how good the Nisei core is since the GReddy wouldn't have to work as hard to stay cool due to the low ambient temp. The Nisei core still managed to cool consistently 20 - 25 degrees more than the GReddy. Imagine what the results would be at 90 degrees ambient! We're thinking we would be looking at 50 - 80 degree difference in both cores. When looking at the GReddy core, you can see how bad of a design it really is. If you can hold up the core to the light and see through it then that's bad. The Nisei core has no light penetration while the greddy I could look down and even see my shoe with it. I have pictures of everything we're going to publish on the website. So, to sum up the test here's the 3 runs we did:
Ambient temp: 53F
Speed: 4th gear WOT pull to 110MPH at redline (that's why we test at 3 am...no other traffic in sight on the freeway)
GReddy V-spec:
Run 1:
Inlet temp - 193
Outlet temp - 78
Run 2:
Inlet temp - 210
Outlet temp - 84
Run 3:
Inlet temp - 204
Outlet temp - 84
Nisei Engineering Core:
Run 1:
Inlet temp - 201
Outlet temp - 66
Run 2:
Inlet temp - 210
Outlet temp - 62
Run 3:
Aborted because we started seeing traffic (approx 4:30 AM people heading to work)
We're anxious to run more tests in hotter weather. We have numbers from march of last year I posted previously. We're going to be testing some other competitors cores in the next coming weeks.

We have TONS of pics of the intercooler I will be adding to myevostore.com, stay tuned!!
Local pickup is welcome, and we can install it as well! We offer a cash discount as well.

We're looking for anyone in the so-cal area.

The lower tray, however, cannot be used. We have a carbon fiber undertray coming out soon though. We're doing some more measuring for it today.
